My Best Self Improvement Resource Discovery - Budhism

My best self improvement resource discovery is the philosophy of Nichiren Daishonin's Budhism.

A personal development / self improvement resource is one that enables you to tackle the constraints and fetters of your life condition and simultaneously emerge a victorious person with a highly motivated state of mind.

Prior to being introduced to this above mentioned philosophy of Buddhism, I had a very rigid and pessimistic approach to life.I would always be at a loss so as to how to tackle challenging situations be it at home or workplace and would often assume that there was absolutely nothing that I could do to change it.

That's when I found the philosophy of Nichiren Daishonin's Budhism, where I was taught the methods of practicing chants and prayers. I surrendered myself completely and wholly and practiced diligently and disciplinedly in my daily life.

As I continued chanting, initially more as a tool for fulfillment of the practice, I started realizing that my prayers had become more structured and logical and my approach to life and daily routine had become very positive and cheerful.

My self belief and esteem started rising and I found to my utter surprise that the people around me in my home and office as well as social environment had started taking notice of my change as well.

I would recommend this philosophy to everybody on the premise of the faith that when everyone absorbs this philosophy and practices the same in their daily life, the happiness all around will percolate into the society and make it a blissful place to live in.
